Re: 2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

Look at all that amazing inside information you have about Reznor's detailed plans for 2013! With that level of detail you're either Rob Sheridan or a delusional fantasizing douche.

Can you guess which of those two options all the smart money is on?

I will say I did laugh at this.

It has nothing to do with having insider information, it has everything to do with rational thought and logic. Reznor said a few years back that he could no longer handle the stresses of touring behind NIN and what went into putting on a show like that. He's not going to come back a mere 3 years later, while in the midst of releasing an entirely new bands material, and play a headlining set at a festival (especially one in April) as NIN.

There hasn't been much talk about Jack White, but FWIW... I spoke to Ikey Owens (keyboard player for Jack and ex-Mars Volta) Wednesday night and he said that as far as he knows, they aren't playing it.

His answers on the Reddit AMA gave a pretty strong indication that he would be touring as NIN in 2013. If that's the case, what is it specifically about headlining Coachella that would be so radically different than a standard tour as to exclude the possibility?

Youve been under a fucking rock, havent you.

You did happen to forget that Coachella was the reason he ''returned'' back in 2005, right?

At least go read the Reddit AMA first. Most of the shit you're saying falls apart if you just read his latest comments, which clearly supersede what he said 3 years ago.
